N502EG

This entry covers the specific airframe registered as N502EG, a Cessna Citation XLS (560XL) built in 2004 with serial number 560-5502. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by X-RAY LIMA SIERRA LLC, an LLC based in Springfield, MO, US; ownership by that single-member LLC is the principal recorded registry action. As a 2004-model Citation XLS, the airframe is valued at $4,397,533, reflecting age, equipment fit and market position among fixed-wing multi-engine business jets.

The cabin of N502EG is outfitted in a nine‑place executive layout consisting of 6 single club chairs, a 2‑seat love seat and a belted lav seat, augmented by a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory; this configuration supports both private executive transport and on-demand charter missions within the aircraft’s payload and range envelope. Avionics are the Honeywell Primus 1000 family with dual FMS, TCAS II and Mark V EGPWS, providing an IFR-capable navigation and situational-awareness suite appropriate for regional and transcontinental routings up to the jet’s maximum range. Based to the owner location in Springfield, MO, US, typical operations for this airframe are consistent with fixed-wing multi-engine business jet use—point-to-point business travel, short international hops and executive repositioning—leveraging a cruise of 433 kts and ceiling of 45,000 ft to optimize time-sensitive missions. Maintenance considerations reflect the aircraft’s model year and engine series, with operator-level scheduling and compliance with manufacturer service bulletins and regulatory inspections.

The airframe is a member of the Cessna Citation XLS (560XL) family, a midsize business jet platform that occupies a performance niche between light jets and larger heavy-cabin types, offering a balance of cabin comfort, operating economics and runway performance. With a maximum range of 1,989 nm and seating for 13, aircraft like N502EG typically appeal to private owners, small corporations and charter operators seeking transcontinental capability without stepping into the larger-cabin market. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2004 XLS center on engine and avionics condition, completed maintenance history and the presence of the Honeywell Primus 1000 suite; such factors materially influence valuation, here reflected in the listed $4,397,533 price level.
